tues & wed ripped rotation

[Guest guest]

hi - finally have time to check-in!

tuesday (yesterday) was cardio day for the ripped rotation. i

walked with chinook for 60 mins. then did a selection from

'star trainers:ab blast', starring rob glick (around 12 mins).

this was crunch variations, followed by planks and side planks,

and it was surprisingly more intense than i thought it would be.

after that i did 'tony horton 10 minute trainer:yoga flex'

which was, overall, a nice little routine - 10 moves in 10

minutes. tony moves through the session quite quickly, and

doesnt cue the opening sun salutations very well. it helps if

you know the salutation and can just do it without much help from

him. total of 92 mins, 426 cals.

today was 'ripped' day, and i started off with a 30 minute bike

ride with chinook. then i did 'ripped' with jari and gang -- i

increased my weights on most things. planning to do a bigger

increase on friday for the last performance of this workout for

probably another year! i felt this workout more today than i

did on monday. happily im not really sore. i actually quite

enjoy this workout and havent minded doing it twice this week so

far. anyway, i followed that with 'perfect in

10:stretch:intense stretch'. these little 10 minute stretch

sessions are great for adding-on! total of 112 mins, 449 cals.

tomorrow is walking, abs and yoga. im still trying to get on

the elliptical for extra cardio, but havent made it there yet

this week. will try harder to fit that in tomorrow.

Great workouts Carolyn. I think GR is my favorite. I like how right when you get that good burn she moves on. I don't find myself really having to push like I do with say....Slim & Lean.
